For those of you who have been waiting for a solid Android 5.0 Lollipop ROM, it’s been a pretty long wait for the Galaxy Note 2 series. One of the coolest things about the Note series and the Note 2 is that there are custom ROM developers who actually make it possible for users to upgrade to the latest Lollipop.

I have actually been flashing a bunch of beta CM12 ROMs for the last couple weeks on my Note 2 and boy, the beginning was ugly. There were lots of problems like camera not working or even data not working. Fortunately as of this week, I can finally say thereR

LiquidSmooth ROM v3.2 is finally out! I have been enjoying the previous v3.1 for weeks but I find that v3.2 is better than ever, giving you more stability and a solid Android 4.4.4 ROM.

Many of earlier Android 4.4.4 custom ROMs sometimes were buggy on some of the variants but I feel the latest version is better than ever. If you are looking for a good, stable 4.4.4 ROM with lots of customization/features, my top two choices are currently Gummy ROM and LiquidSmooth RO

Probably the coolest thing you can do on a Note 2 is root and install custom ROMs. Well, a lot of people just “don’t get it” and stay on stock firmware, which actually is super laggy and you are limited to features Samsung gives you.

There’s a better way to use your Note 2 by installing custom ROMs that give you Galaxy S5 and Note 3 features. Of course, that is if you want to take advantage over everything that your Note 2 has to offer and root it.

For AT&T, T-Mobile, GT-N7105, Canadian, and GT-N7100, you can grab the Ditto Note 3 ROM, which is

Well, I can tell you Gummy ROM is one of the best out there that also brings you a load of great customization/options not found on CM11 ROM. I love CM11 ROM also but sometimes lack of tweaks/features make me want to switch to a ROM like Gummy ROM.

With Gummy ROM, you will get all of your 3 wishes granted along with a few dozen customization/tweaks like Lockscreen notifications, full cu

For this week’s Galaxy Note 2 ROM of the Week, definitely check out the latest CM11 Android 4.4.3, available for all variants of Note 2 including AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, Canadian, GT-N7105, and GT-N7100.

The latest CM11 ROM brings you the best Android we’ve seen so far along with all the Android 4.4.3 performance optimization, which you will be able to feel right away upon installation.

Of course, Samsung is currently still updating most Note 2 models to Android 4.4.2 but Android 4.4.3 is much better in my opinion as many bugs have been squashe

For this week’s ROM of the Week, also check out AICP ROM, available for AT&T, T-Mobile, GT-N7105, Sprint, Verizon, and Canadian Note 2. (Sprint users, your 4G LTE signal may be lower on AOSP ROMs, so don’t install unless you can handle that.)

Based on latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat, AICP ROM is an AOSP ROM (What is AOSP?) that brings you lots of customization, performance, and battery life.

Inside AICP ROM, you will find the latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat AOKP ROM Control Set

For this week’s ROM of the week, check out SOKP ROM for Galaxy Note 2, available for AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, Canadian, GT-N7105, and GT-N7100.

Based on latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat, SOKP ROM for Galaxy Note 2 brings you a ton of customization and features including multi-window, floating multi-window (experimental), and more.

SOKP ROM brings you many AOSP customization/features you are used to on other AOSP ROMs together such as HALO floating notifications (which can be turned into floating multi-window), lockscreen notifications (my favorite), Active
